<p>Please be honest! I love criticism (:</p>

<p>Your GPA looks decent enough, your SAT really hurts, but your extracurriculars and classes are very strong and I’ll take your word for your essays and recs. Overall, I think you’re in the “match” section for UMass. Understand I’m basing this solely on the info you’re giving me, but personally, the admission’s office workers must be smoking something if they don’t take you.</p>

<p>Thank you! That makes me feel much better!</p>
